Abstract

The structural and morphological evolution of growing β-SiC films was investigated in dependence on the ramp rate and the propane concentration. It is shown that the film structure depends critically on the formation of an initial SiC layer during heating-up. A growth model was proposed to explain the obtained different resulting film structure.
